Get a First Look Inside the Rise of The Resistance Attraction at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Today, Hollywood Studios opened it’s doors to media to offer a first look at the second headlining attraction at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge- Rise of the Resistance which is set to debut on December 5, 2019, in Walt Disney World and on January 17, 2020 at Disneyland theme park in California.
When it opens, this harrowing new adventure will blur the lines between fantasy and reality, putting guests in the middle of a climactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance. Guests will join the Resistance and depart from Batuu in a transport ship to meet General Leia Organa at a secret rendezvous point.
Along the way, however, you will be captured by a First Order Star Destroyer. The action then ramps up as you seek to escape the clutches of Kylo Ren and the First Order – with the help of some heroes of the Resistance. Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance will bring guests face to face with some of their favorite Star Wars characters, including Resistance heroes Rey, Poe and Finn, as well as Kylo Ren and General Hux of the First Order.
The ride will also utilize multiple ride systems to tell the story of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. In one sequence, a new simulator experience will give the sensation to guests they are falling from space to crash land on Batuu. During a portion of the experience, guests will race through a Star Destroyer in a trackless ride vehicle featuring an onboard droid that reacts to its surroundings.
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance promises to be one of the most ambitious, advanced and immersive experiences ever undertaken by Walt Disney Imagineering. The attraction is also one of the largest ever created by Disney. Its massive show building is a world unto itself, housing two full-size AT-AT walkers and a Star Destroyer hangar bay – complete with a TIE fighter and a garrison of Stormtroopers – plus more thrills and surprises which at the moment remain a secret!
